Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Most organizations have a resident know-it-all. This person believes he has an expertise in just about everything. Managing this personality type can be tricky to navigate. Yet, the pressure to climb the ladder can impose a skewed belief system that in order to make it to the next rung, one must appear to know-it-all.
Being a know-it-all comes with a blind spot. The blind spot is the inability or lack of desire to receive other opinions which could be critical to success.
Proverbs 18:2 says, “Fools find no pleasure in understanding but delight in airing their own opinions.”
Opinions within an office are a dime a dozen. Everyone has an opinion. A person who willingly listens to the opinions of others will find greater work satisfaction, relationships and success.
